As a first year special education major, I found this book very helpful when I was studying special education law. It is very complete and tells a lot of the history of special education. It also gives specific court cases to tell where Special education law comes from.


3 out of 5 stars Overpriced and Too Basic   June 27, 2007

The presentation of this book gives the impression that it is a legal text, however it only skims the surface of issues related to Special Education law. There are good refereces to caselaw in each section that would be helpful to an individual that is not familiar with conducting legal research, to provied a starting point to find relevant caselaw. However, it would be a big mistake to rely on these in lieu of conducting specific jurisdictional and current research. Other than a more in depth review of caselaw you can save alot of money by buying the Wrightslaw book to get an overview of the law in this area or read the law/regulations for free and conduct free legal research of federal caselaw at numerous internet sites.
